EMBANKMENT
EMBANKMENT
EMBANKMENTThere have always been a problem of embankment in Indian society, be it embankment of rivers, embankment of roads, lives, development or wealth. Today we see footpath and roads merging with each other with no sign of border or parapet. The same way our system has also spilled over. We have not been able to contain things when they grow and one day becomes Frankenstein for us. We grow like rabbits, we could not contain our multiplier effect. We have made billions of policy for development of nation but we could not chanalise them to the common man. Our haphazard growth apparently gives a look of developed society in some patches but what, when we cannot control it to the benefit of society itself. Riche are growing richer, poor languishing behind.
We have more roads to accommodate all vehicles even than we jostled in traffic jam as a daily routine. We have enough space for parking even than people murder their neighbors for parking. We have lot of food but people die of hunger every year. We have enough water still our taps are dry.
All this because of lack of embankment. Our policies have been such that they spill and deviate rather than reaching masses. Instead of making innumerous policies we must analyse the effect of one policy and then formulate another. Overlapping and duplicity of our projects have eaten good chunk of our national wealth. In fact I feel there should be embankment management. Students should be taught this subject. We are teaching Change Management, though it is good in context of society like India but without reinforcing our past we cannot move ahead.
